The details for the 2008 Defeat Autism Now conference have been released and registration is open. From the conference website, “the conference devotes its agenda to teaching parents and practitioners how nutrition, intestinal disorders, detoxification, and other metabolic issues impact behavior, attention, speech and the general health of children on the autism spectrum.”
The 2008 convention will be held from April 3 – 7 at the Crowne Plaza Hotel at 2349 West Marlton Pike in Cherry Hill, New Jersey. Conference rates vary from a one-day admission for a parent of an autistic child for $150 to $425 for the three-day DAN practitioner track.
Highlights from the conference workshop schedule include a presentation by Dr. David Berger: Prevent Harm Now: How to Carry, Birth, and Raise a Healthy Child in a Toxic World and a two hour biomedical treatment question and answer session on Friday evening.
Both parents and practitioners, and those with and without prior DAN conference experience, will find that the workshops presented at the Defeat Autism Now 2008 conference are more than comprehensive.
